Show HN: Open-source gamified community platform https://bit.ly/3HsG5or

Show HN: Open-source gamified community platform Hey! Wanted to showcase this project I’ve been passionately working on. It’s an open source community platform built with the nextjs app router. There’s lots of cool features, but the main one I’m excited about is the gamification. There’s a badge and inventory system. Admins can set value to user actions like creating a post. Then a user can use their accumulated points to purchase items that have modifiers on things like your username or avatar. There’s zero vendor lock in and all you need is a: - redis server - s3 storage - smtp server Built with nextjs and prisma. Would love your thoughts and opinion. If you have any issues getting it running feel free to ping me on x at @dillonraphael https://bit.ly/3HsG5Vt January 22, 2024 at 11:42PM

Show HN: Sendenv, a CLI tool to share environment variables https://bit.ly/47QpyWe

Show HN: Sendenv, a CLI tool to share environment variables My weekend project sendenv is a CLI tool that lets you share environment variables securely with someone else. It is built on top of magic-wormhole which allows for safe, account-free data transfer. When you send variables using sendenv, it creates a one-time code. You give this code to the person who needs the variables. They use the code in their shell to load the variables. This is handy for quickly setting up new team members or copying local environment variables to another system. Its currently in alpha obviously, but the core functionality works (I have tested sending vaults from a Macbook Air M1 to a ubuntu ec2 instance). I have a lot of follow up ideas to make this better, but wanted the community's feedback before I invest more time on this. Thanks for reading! https://bit.ly/3OdohSm January 23, 2024 at 02:17AM

Show HN: D4pi: Diablo4 Item Filter Inside Web Browser https://bit.ly/3HrKmIP

Show HN: D4pi: Diablo4 Item Filter Inside Web Browser D4pi turns Diablo4 item screenshots into searchable, filterable data. * Hassle-Free Click-and-Go Demo right on the Landing Page * Everything runs locally inside your web browser -- Thanks to Next.js, OpenCV.js, and Tesseract.js. Source Code: https://bit.ly/47PgoJA * Configurable -- the default settings work the best with 1080p (1920*1020) screenshots taken with the default in-game brightness setting. --- Hello, frontend newbie here, still [1] trying to learn by doing :) After Diablo4 season 0 & 1, and 2/3 thru season 2; I promised myself not to play any more Diablo4 without some sort of automated/tool-assisted item filtering. So here D4pi is: Diablo4 Item Filter inside Web Browser. It feels awesome to go from an idea to an actual thing. I hope you find it intriguing. Feedback is always much appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Show HN: Plock: Use a local LLM from anywhere in your OS After seeing a cool demo of a hack on Twitter, I built a cross platform version of it that works well and uses streaming. From anywhere on Mac and Linux, trigger Ollama and optionally feed it your clipboard. I built it yesterday and it's already very useful to me. I'm pretty excited about it and wanted to share! https://bit.ly/4b8OET2 January 21, 2024 at 11:42PM

Show HN: Finagg – free and nearly unlimited financial data https://bit.ly/3SrCf5q

Show HN: Finagg – free and nearly unlimited financial data finagg is a Python package and CLI that enables you to aggregate and update free financial data from a handful of high quality data sources all within your own SQL database. Here're some quick facts about it: - Implements nearly all of the BEA API, FRED API, and SEC EDGAR APIs (all of which have free and nearly unlimited data access) - Only focused on macrodata (no intraday data support) - Provides methods for transforming data from these APIs into normalized features that're readily useable for analysis, strategy development, and AI/ML - The most popular methods include getting historical price earnings ratios, getting historical price earnings ratios normalized across industries, and sorting companies by their industry-normalized price earnings ratios - Python >= 3.10 only (you should upgrade anyways if you haven't ;) I'm looking for feedback on the overall package and CLI designs. Also, I'd appreciate any recommendations for implementing other financial data sources that're free with no daily API limits. Cheers! https://bit.ly/3Spd9nN January 22, 2024 at 04:16AM

Show HN: Chai - remote PDF and Hex Viewer service accessible via remote browser https://bit.ly/4b7Z4Tc

Show HN: Chai - remote PDF and Hex Viewer service accessible via remote browser I'm really happy with this. It doesn't provide the "best" PDF support (it converts to images, page by page) -- but it does support a bunch of other documen formats supported by the union of LibreOffice, Pandoc and MuPDF -- and it was hella fun to write and get working: a mix of bash scripting glue, nodejs servering, and dependency installation. Next up in the todo for Chai is getting it working on Windows (which will basically involve finding the right dependencies and maybe branching within the bash glue for their different paths from the Windows dimensions haha! :)). I was particularly proud of the hex viewer part. I just felt it was not complete without really being able to see the byte by byte playout of a file. Obviously there are some file size limitations (but the hex viewer is streaming, so should work for any size the underlying system can handle), and therefore optimally efficient. Oh, and it also should handle archives just fine, as in, you can open {zip,tar.gz,... etc ...} archives and inspect them "file viewer" style. Somehow I just felt this kind of capability (remote viewing files, from a safe and secure distance) was absolutely necessary for a remote browser. I often think of these things like a "glovebox"^0 0: https://bit.ly/3S4RbVD specifically designed for handling hazardous materials, including biological, chemical, or radioactive substances. Gloveboxes provide a sealed environment where researchers or technicians can manipulate hazardous substances safely https://bit.ly/3u7Pdf9 January 21, 2024 at 05:43AM

Show HN: Job Log – Job Application Tracker https://bit.ly/4b0QCoD

Show HN: Job Log – Job Application Tracker Happy Friday HN! Long time lurker, first time poster here. I, along with many others in recent times, have been affected by the layoffs impacting the tech industry, and I'm currently on the software engineering job hunt. I had been tracking my job applications via Excel to help facilitate my WA state unemployment claims, but am (personally) anti-Excel / against using spreadsheets. I also wanted to explore the latest and greatest NextJS / Vercel features, so thought this would be a great time to learn something new! Job Log was never really meant to see the light of day for other users, but I thought "why not?" if it might help others in their job search hunt. Note: this was built in about a week, so will definitely be a little rough around the edges. Please be patient as I continue to build on this! You can learn more here: https://bit.ly/4b2ELGA Feel free to leave any feedback here in this thread or email me at joblogservice@gmail.com! Hope everyone has a great weekend! https://bit.ly/4260NEa January 19, 2024 at 09:20PM

Show HN: Tybalt – A collection of tools for building web components I wanted to learn more about web components/custom elements, and also about how the big JavaScript meta frameworks work, so I've been doing some research into how to fit a framework together. It's not intended for use in production today, and may never be, as it's primary purpose is educational. https://bit.ly/47XUILD January 19, 2024 at 06:39PM

Show HN: Lightweight Productivity Tool https://bit.ly/3Hq7Ca5

Show HN: Lightweight Productivity Tool Hi HN! I’m the founder of Zlinky ( https://bit.ly/3O9Ve1E ). Zlinky is an app that helps you save and organize your links and screenshots. We have worked hard to keep the app very simple. We also have a web version and a Chrome Extension. I was inspired to build this app as I was struggling to find an easy way save / organize / revisit / connect ideas. I couldn't find an existing tool that was lightweight and purpose built. I spend a LOT of time consuming content, and I felt that I wasn't being effective revisiting the highest quality content for work or personal purposes. My screenshots were also in a mess and that one important screenshot often got lost. I learnt about building prosumer apps as the Co-Founder of ManageFlitter (RIP). We scaled ManageFlitter to over 4 million users. Eventually Twitter refused most of our most valuable features. The ManageFlitter story captures the crazy rollercoaster that was building on top of the public Twitter API. Zlinky has a very generous free account that should be sufficient most users for a long period of time. Would love to get your feedback, questions, and ideas. Thanks! :) Kevin https://bit.ly/3tZXv8Y January 19, 2024 at 03:28AM
